As we all know-Minions the Movie explained the Origins of the cute,
pill-shaped little mayhem makers that we adore, love and see as emoticons
around the net even on facebook and merchandise of them has popped up globally.
It ranked highest in the top movie of the summer and it is coming out in
november from what I researched.

BUT! We all know who the real stars were in the movie-THE OVERKILLS! The
lovey-dovey, passionate, sadistic, evil, groovy couple Scarlet and Herb
Overkill caught out eyes and stole our hearts as they were on screen during the
movie…

…WE THE Overkill fans want a movie dedicated to these two! IT'S GOTTA be
done!
So please spread this petition around! Raise your voices! Call, contact, mail
and email illumination entertainment and universal studios about this rare
jewel just waiting to be on display and be stolen by the Overkills just like
our hearts!

Wow! *heart eyes*

Frankly, I don't care who writes the Overkills movie;
I just want one already! And clearly I'm not alone.

Hmm, not convinced yet by Meg's passionate essay?
Well, I have just the antidote! Here are 20 reasons to sign the Overkills
Origin Movie petition:

True love!

1) You enjoy sci-fi romance stories and want to see
more of them in mainstream films.

2) You crave more and better representation of
heroines in movies.

3) Scarlet Overkill is a great character and one of
the most talented movie female supervillains of all time. She needs an entire
movie of her own in order to capture her greatness.

4) You're a fan of Scarlet and Herb Overkill.

5) Scarlet Overkill deserves an origin story because
her character is just that good!

6) You've seen MINIONS and are dying to know how
Scarlet and Herb met.

7) A Minions spin-off film will ensure the full
realization of Scarlet Overkill's character.

8) Herb Overkill will dig you.

(Universal Pictures)

9) Signing this petition will help demonstrate your commitment
to advocating for more and better female characters for girl fans of these
types of stories. In other words, sign it for the sake of girls everywhere.

10) Scarlet Overkill needs an adversary worthy of her
skills and a film of her own would accomplish that. Why does Gru get to battle
other supervillains, but not Scarlet? Squaring her off against the Minions
undermines her character and is basically sexist whoa I better stop now or this
will turn into a rant.

11) A Scarlet Overkill movie in the vein of DESPICABLE
ME will add more gender balance to the franchise. There probably won't ever be
any female Minions, so this film series needs all the help it can get.

12) You figure signing this petition might lead to not
only one, but two Scarlet Overkill movies: One about her origin story and
romance with Herb, and a second one like DESPICABLE ME wherein she gets her
redemption story. Or maybe a movie that accomplishes both. We can dream a
little, right?!

13) Signing the petition might help alert Illumination
Entertainment and Universal Pictures about how much we appreciate characters
like Scarlet and Herb and want more of them.

Look at the way he watches her! OMG!

14) You want more action with Scarlet in her rocket
dress. And piloting her rocket ship. And wielding her lava gun. And
doing kung fu. And…

15) You want to see what other kinds of groovy inventions
Herb can create.

16) You're interested in a sci-fi romance about a
supervillain couple that agilely sidesteps the issue of their villainy. In
other words, a movie about the Overkills would make them sympathetic, but not
necessarily condone their evil deeds. This would be a family film, after all. (That said, folks adore watching characters like evil Frank Underwood from HOUSE OF CARDS, so...bring on more supervillain stories!)

17) You want to see a Despicable Me movie without any
Minions in it.

18) You want to witness more scenes of Scarlet unleashing
her beautiful, ferocious self.

19) You want to witness more scenes of Herb being his
handsome, submissive self.
